Hi Everyone: I know how much I enjoy all your pics; so I hope you enjoy these. The quilt is my first attempt; just 11.5 inch blocks. But I had a double size chenille bedspread that I cut up and incorporated. Boy, did it do a number on my rotary cutter!
The second is a small table top that I used both flannel and cotton.

I will post pictures of the next two projects I am working on when done.

God Bless all, and keep stitching!

Both quilts are beautiful, but I especially like how your chenille one came out!! Keep up the good work!

Awesome quilts! :D

WOW.. just love them BOTH.. I am so afraid to try chenille..

GREAT JOB!

Those are beautiful!!! (Now I know what to do with those old chenille bedspreads..... :wink: )

very nice

what a great idea for the bedspread - looks great!

Both are beautiful, love the chenille blocks with the flower blocks, very pretty combo. :D

Love the chenille!!!!!! The table runner is gorgeous too!!!!

Ooooh, those are sooo pretty! Thanks for sharing! :) :) :)

Love both your quilts. I really want to do a table topper, but am afraid the cats would slide it off the table. LOL :lol: :lol: :lol: I really love the chenille quilt. The effect is wonderful. Now I want to try it too.

Great job on your quilts!

what a wonderful idea to use those old bedspreads. Thanks for the pics, lovely quilts

Love 'em both! The bedspread looks so cottage-y! Love it, love it, love it!

Both of them are great! Love the use of Chenille in the bed spread! Great job!

Both of your projects are great. Did the chenille ravel a lot? I have always been afraid to use it because I thought it would.

WOw are they nice.

Thank you everyone for your kind words. The chenille unravelled a little bit; had lots of 'fluff' on the floor after cutting, but not too bad.

Wow! First attempt? You rock!

Love them both, very pretty....The picture with the bed and quilt looks like it came out of a magazine....very nice.

I love the look of that chenille, And I could kick my self when I think of all the chenille bedspreads I've thrown away over the years!!!! :roll:
You've done a great job !

Great job and I love what you did with the chinelle.

1st one huh? Looks like you've been quilting for awhile. Great job on them!

Mrs Mel

Love them both especially the table runner :wink:

Tisha

Wow,those are just beatuiful

Both are beautiful. Great job.

Lovely! You have a wonderful future ahead of you.

That chenille is just incredible. I like the table runner, too, but that bed quilt is breath-taking!

Very nice!

both are pretty, but that chenulle is great...:) :lol:

I can't believe those are your first!!!
They are beautiful!! I am working on my first as well but it is only a table runner. I am nervous to do anything too big yet! But seeing what you have done I may get the nerve up! Maybe!

Beautiful. I love the chenille.

I love them both. Great work!!!

Kyia

they look great. Wonderful work on both.

Congratulations. You did a fantastic job!! I love the colors in the table runner. I am partial to the chenille. Chenille reminds me of my childhood. (We were forbidden to JUMP ON THE BED that had the chenille spread on it. :wink: My sister and I loved to bounce on that bed.)

I hadn't thought of that use for the chenille...that turned out great! I love it...almost a shabby chic isn't it??

Thanks for sharing!

Thanks all. You are all so encouraging. And I was kinda trying to go for the shabby chic look, Sandpat; a combination of that and cottagey look.

I love newbies! Great quilts really love them both, but I am especially taken with your pillows! If I ever get my roof fixed I'm gonna get a full sized bed and I believe that your bed quilt and pillows will be perfect!
you should be tired of it by then right????

They are both very pretty, you did beautifully!

The small pillows were made from a lace table runner and an old dress with lace collar. If I am tired of it by then, I promise you will be first in line to have it. :)
